Election Day Creativity

November 5, 2024 10AM–5PM

On Tuesday, November 5, from 10 AM to 5 PM, the Center for Art, Design, and Visual Culture (CADVC) hosted a collaborative drawing activity in the Fine Arts Building, Room 105. No additional materials were needed, as all art supplies were provided.

Held on Election Day in the US, the event aimed to offer a space for creative expression and respite for UMBC community members. While democratic participation is both a privilege and a responsibility, it can be stressful or difficult for some. The CADVC provided this event as an opportunity for the UMBC community to unwind with art supplies and calming music. For those not inclined to draw or color, the exhibition, Levester Williams: all matters aside, served as a quiet and contemplative space for reflection.
